[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2412692, member: 30902"] Then you're seriously lacking the necessary foundation to do so. I don't need a lab to follow the track from impact to exit. If there's any question you run a stick, arrow or even cleaning rod through it. You can then see exactly how much damage it did on the way through. I am a scientist, I hold a master's in field biology not to mention being a Ranger Medic. I know wounds, I know what causes them, I've looked at many thousands of them on humans, game, and varmints. Also, when you actually recover a bullet, you know exactly what it did., When many people on numerous animals had repeated instances where a particular bullet penciled through instead of opening it was quickly determined that there was a slight flaw in the manufacturing QC process. The Maker admitted the problem and suggested ways people could prevent it by slightly modifying the tips and cavity. Most of life happens outside of labs and universities and when qualified people tell you a bullet failed and explain the how and why it's a good thing to listen to them. When they show you the recovered bullets and photos of the wounds, you don't need a PhD to determine what happened. Terminal ballistics on game is not something any University is going to fund studies on anytime soon so this is what we have. [/QUOTE]
